Wow, it has been about a month of me not posting my menu for the week. January 2nd we started keto and so far it hasn't been horrible. We took this past weekend off because I knew I would go off plan since it was my birthday. This week is going to be pretty simple. I started following this blog (http://frugalfamilyfood.com/) and did an inventory of my pantry and freezer. Now that I did the inventory I made a menu from what I have. I will fill in where needed with a grocery list. I do try to get sales when they happen. Which is why I switched from shopping every two weeks to every week. For example this past week we got 40 pounds of chicken quarters for $15. Hannaford had whole chickens for .88 cents a couple of weeks ago. So I got four of them. What I save on grocery shopping I plan to put towards stocking my pantry and freezer. I do have some Sams rewards that I plan to use to fill our freezer and pantry with. Here is the menu for the week ( it really is kind of boring this week).
Monday- Nathan and I are having our leftover Olive Garden from yesterday and Mike is having leftover Stuffed Chicken breast with salad from Saturday. (Nathan and I will have the other leftovers for lunch tomorrow)
Tuesday-Broccoli soup from the freezer
Wednesday-Italian Sausage, peppers and onions with Zucchini Noodles I plan on the sausage and peppers with onions in the crockpot to cook all day.
Thursday- Cheeseburger pie ( Made from Trim Healthy Mama cookbook) from the freezer
Friday- Whole Chicken with mixed veggies
Saturday-Steak with loaded Broccoli
Sunday-Take leftover chicken from Friday and make chicken salad to have in lettuce wraps. I will just take the chicken off the bones, add mayo, pickles and bacon bits. Season with salt and pepper.
Next week hopefully I will have some better meals. :) Sometimes I get in a slump of not wanting to plan anything or I get tired of the same thing all the time. Also, I don't always stick to my menu. Sometimes my hubby wants something different. I am learning to be flexible. :) I hope everyone has a great week. Remember life is a journey so make it count.
